Maloto

Up in the title
Lies the dreams that raised me
The dreams that are vital
The dreams that set me free

For every step I rise,
The other one is building up further
As my clicking footsteps tend to be wise
As I move from the storm to a good weather

I was down struggling as an orphan
But the dream did not let me down
It built up Kwithu where I have more fun
Where I eat as if I live in a western town

Now I’ve climbed up the radar
Moving from Kwithu to Mzuzu Academy School
Where I’m encouraged to work harder
To climb the next step till I reach the sky blue.

Hope soon in the end 
Shall be admiration 
For my life it has mend
And I shall sing in exultation.
